Wow team clutches, big change for them. Plus 4 yr warranty for spring orders.

So 4yr warranty for Cats and Doo. 5 for Yamaha

Seems manufactured trrying to sway people with bigger warranty to get spring order, that's fine by me!
Well what's Polaris got for us?.......staying tuned


I kno doos warranty is Bumper to Bumper with NO mileage cap. Is cats and poos the same?

Well now that all the lineups are out, no huge game changer :(. Seems 3 inch track is here to stay as the other 2.5 followed suit. Last year was skidoos year of the colors, looks to me like poo went with some knarly colors for 2016. Also the assualt stayed with old chassis and engine? Kinda suprised with that move i thought that was a big seller for them. Whats the difference between SKS and RMK?

Although I have never owned any (currently have 3 Ski Doos) I must say Cat appears to have the most complete and varied line-up, with engine and various related options and choices. Really give them credit and like the direction they are going. I think what is holding them back slightly is their dealer network and they need to expand it to compete with the others. Good dealers out there, but do not seem to have the shear numbers like the others do. Brand loyalty is great, but I give guys who try the others on occasion credit, and respect what they have to say when offering comparison comments.

one thing about cat is they make too many damn sleds.
one peek on their site and your like, what sled out of 300 should I pick? and why this one? WTH?
kinda overwhelming for someone who isn't accustomed to their line up like myself.

The SKS is exactly what I ordered in 2015. Piggyback shocks front bulkhead cooler chaincase pro taper bars brake and switches and aluminum over structure tubes and rear bumper.

Are you upgrading this year Indy or keeping your 2015 another year?

What do you like for 2016? Do you like that orange tunnel? I'd have to see it in person.

I think I have my color choices narrowed down. In order I like 2,3,4,1. The model I want is a tossup, I'm currently in favor of the SKS 800 155" with the 2.6" track, but not a fan of the MSRP as it is the identical sled to mine with a $2k price jump. The rest of the sleds went up ~$500-1000 in MSRP. My second choice would be a Pro RMK 800 155" and unsure of the lug size as I prefer chaincase over belt drive for reliability but would like to try the belt drive for the weight and responsiveness. Reason I bring that up is if I got a Pro with the 2.6" track it comes in belt drive but they only offer the 3" with the chaincase (due to not being able to gear the belt drive low enough to turn the 3" track supposedly). I think with my style of riding the 3" would take away a lot of the playfulness and I feel I would rip it to shreds pretty quick.

You know as well as anyone, a track swap is easy, so don't let that hold you up. That 3" would sell fast on Snowest.
